Here we go:

Conceptual complaint:

LED on AUX for charging is very suboptimal. Conceptually, the power button has 
to do with power, so if at all, the power LED needs to be lit on charging. (I 
know it wasn't your idea, Andy. For my releases, I will revert this patch.)

Implementation complaint:

a) This hardcoded behaviour should be configurable 
(CONFIG_HARDCODED_CHARGING_LED) for people who rather want userland to be in 
control of the LEDs.

b) It looks this implementation is completely ignoring the LED class driver 
which already implements a charging trigger. Why?

:M:
